SilveradoGoesBang Posted November 3, 2011 Report Posted November 3, 2011 When it comes to a sub in a sealed box will more air space or less airspace help you hit lower notes or does it matter?

mattc3366 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Posted November 3, 2011 I am far from a professional compared to most ppl on here but I would think that if the box is built somewhat bigger than the suggested volume the lows will be better than if it was smaller than suggested. subwoofers - two eclipse 88120s box - 3.4 cubes tuned to 32 hz amps - aq1200 and pheonix gold zx450 New build : 2 obsidian audio 15s same amp 6.1 cubic foot box tuned to 32 hz in a civic hatch
SkylarDunn Posted November 3, 2011 Report Posted November 3, 2011 you want a sealed box if your sub has a QTS value of over .60 I'd use a design program, like WINisd or Bassbox PRO if you want to figure out how much airspace you would need. The bigger the box you have, the lower the -3dB point will be, but it will also have more of a delay. Those free programs will give you an ideal spec for what you'd need, not to mention both of them are free. Getting bass into the cabin of a W124 mercedes is impossible. Current setup: Temp 1999 panasonic HU rockford 300.2 for fronts rockford 200.2 for rears rockford 400.1 for sub Leaning towards a 8" in an exponential horn DAMN YOU GERMANS AND YOUR 5" SPEAKERS!
